IMPORTANTCars with optional
“Kaleidos” options (non-standard
personalised paint colours), can be re-
paired in exactly the same way as
other cars painted with standard
colours at your LANCIA Dealership.To wash the car properly:
1)Remove the aerial from the roof
to prevent damaging it when washing
the car in an automatic carwash.
2)Wet the body using a low pressure
jet of water.
3)Wipe a sponge with a slightly
soapy solution over the bodywork,
frequently rinsing the sponge.
4)Rinse well with water and dry
with a jet of air or a chamois leather.
When drying the car, be careful to
get at those parts which are not so
easily seen e.g. the door frames, bon-
net and around the headlights where
water can most readily collect. You
are advised not to take the car into a
closed area immediately, but to leave
it out in the open so any water left can
evaporate more easily.
Do not wash the car after it has been
parked in the sun or while the bonnet
is hot: it could take the shine off the
paint.
External plastic parts must be
cleaned following the usual car wash-
ing procedure. As far as possible avoid parking your
car under trees; the resinous sub-
stances which often drop from certain
types of trees could dull the paint and
increase the possibility of rusting.
IMPORTANTBird droppings must
be washed off immediately and with
great care as their acid is particularly
aggressive.
Detergents pollute water.
For this reason, the car
must be washed in an area
equipped for the collection and
purification of the liquids used
while washing.
IMPORTANTWashing is to be car-
ried out with the engine cold and the
ignition key on STOP. After washing
make sure that the various protections
(rubber sheaths and other guards)
have not moved from their positions
or been damaged.

(1) If special equipment is fitted (sunroof, air conditioner, tow hitch etc.) the unladen weight increases, thus reducing the payload as specified in the max-
imum loads allowed.
(2) Loads not to be exceeded: the driver must arrange the goods in the boot and/or load surface so that they comply with these limits.
(3) Including the weight of the roof rack.

FUEL
CONSUMPTION -
CO
2EMISSIONS
The fuel consumption values, in
litres x 100 km, indicated in the fol-
lowing tables, have been determined
according to homologation tests pre-
scribed in the European Directive
specifications. The following proce-
dures are used to define the con-
sumption values:Consumption values are defined by
means of the following procedures:
– an urban cycleconsisting of a
cold start and a simulated drive in
city streets;
– an extra-urban cycleconsisting
in frequent accelerations, in all gears,
simulating normal conditions of use.
Speed ranges from 0 to 120 km/h;
– the combined consumptionis
calculated as approximately 37% of
the urban cycle and approximately
63% of the extra-urban cycle. IMPORTANT Road and traffic
conditions, weather, general con-
ditions of the car, driving style, fit-
tings and accessories, use of the
climate control system, load, roof
racks and other situations penal-
ising aerodynamic penetration and
effecting rolling resistance will in-
fluence fuel consumption rates
which can be different from the
values shown in the table (see
“Cheap running that respects the
environment” in “Driving your
car” chapter).
Consumption may be greater during
the first 2000 km due to running in.
